Fox News
A Washington, D.C.-based political firm that lobbies on behalf of the company behind Russia's Nord Stream 2 Pipeline also helped pressure a key Republican senator to support Secretary of State Antony Blinken's confirmation, Fox News has learned.
Fox News obtained an electronic copy of the letter; the document's metadata shows it was created by Adriana Larsen, a senior policy analyst at BGR. Risch was among the roughly couple dozen Republicans who voted to confirm Blinken. While the letter's existence was previously reported by Politico, its full contents and full list of signatories had remained unpublished until this report. GOP Blinken Letter by Peter J.
